About the Project

Project

The main theme of the project is digital wellbeing of the adult trainers and learners- sometimes people do not know how to defend themselves from the misinformation, fake news and ubiquitous new technologies. They very often loos healthy balance between life in IT and real world in professional and private life. We would like to teach them how to control it and change it.

A trainer who is better prepared for his or her on-line work is more effective in transferring his or her knowledge and subsequently, his or her adult audience receives a better quality education

The long-term goal of the project is to better prepare trainers from NGOs to conduct remote education with adults, as well as to improve their digital well-being, which will result in more effective work in an online environment.

During the project our adult trainers (our main target group) will achieve:

  • Improvement of the digital wellbeing adult trainers, who provide online education
  • Awareness among how important is digital well-being in the present time
  • They will be better prepared for providing online adult education from a soft skills point of view
  • They will know how to balance time spent at the computer for professional and private reasons
  • More effective information searching
  • Better Online time moderation
  • Better Fake news recognition.

Results

During the project we will create:

  • a test and diagnosis of infoobecity phenomena with 30 questions. The test will help adult trainers to check their knowledge about information management and their current diagnosis of online behavior.
  • a new, innovative @Academy Digital Wellbeing training curriculum for adult trainers to improve on-line classes conducted by them, but also moderate online time and information management and recognize fake news
  • self-learning guide “Digital wellbeing in adult education” for adult trainers and adult learners

During the project we will organize:

  • One edition of pilot training @Academy for trainers in Poland, Estonia and Portugal
  • 3 multiplier events in each partner country with at least 40 participants per country – to increase the level of understanding for digital wellbeing and promote results of the project.
